Fever Series by Karen Marie Moning

The Fever Series by Karen Marie Moning  is a blow your mind series. So many plot twists, sex, and mysteries. We start off meeting our main character Mac. She is over in Dublin, Ireland to find the person or persons who murdered her sister. But things are not what they seem in Dublin. Shortly after getting there she starts seeing things. What could it be? Then she meets Jericho Barrons. (More about him in a bit.) From there she spends the next several months learning and fighting Fae with him. Finding out the truth about her life and her sister's death.  She finds others like her, meets people who want to kill her just for being her and yet others who want to use her. Mac realizes that she might not make it through all this alive, but she is going to try to save those she loves.



First off, I LOVED the series. There were a few part I hated. I hated the character Dani. Annoying little twit. But I loved the slow love story between Mac and Barrons. It starts out just as business then slowly evolves from there. Watching them both fall in love with the other is so cute. He does some crazy things in order to ensure Mac stays alive. He always tends to call her Ms. Lane unless certain things are happening. But you gotta read to know.  The way she loves her family no matter what goes on is another thing I love. The way she fights for them even after what happens. She proves certain sayings.

Jericho Barrons is HAWT. He has that raw sex appeal. Then there is Vlane, the Seelie Fae. Who whenever Mac sees, she wants to just jump his bones because of the sex he throws off. I mean who wouldn't want that? Both men are described as nothing less than Gods. Both fight for the love of Mac. They both want her loyalties.

The Secret of Isobel Key, by Jen McConnel

                 The Secret of Isobel Key, written by Jen McConnel is part of a series. The first book starts with our main character Lou or Louisa as she quits her job. From there we meet her roommate and best friend Tammy. Tammy has a Christmas gift for the two of them from her parents, a trip to Scotland! At first Lou does not want to go, but Tammy convinces her.
                  We learn from the start that things are not ok between Lou and her mom. We can see tension that continues through the book. Over in Scotland the girls meet Brian, a handsome, Scottish tour guide. (Accent anyone?) While over there Lou wants to learn about the Scottish Witch Trials. While looking through a library she finds the file about a woman names Isobel Key. The file only has that she was arrested for witchcraft. But it does not say what happens to her. Lou embarks on a quest to find out the story of Isobel Key. Little does she know that this quest will change her life. Murder, a new love, a family and fights with her best friend, Lou changes while in Scotland. What will the second book bring?

            So this book caught my eye for 2 reasons. 1) I am a big history buff. So the Scottish Witch Trials was a huge draw. 2) Scotland= accent= HAWT guy named Brian.
         
            I knew that witch trials had happened in England and here in the US. I had no idea Scotland had some too. But for Scotland it was a little different. Learning about that put more ideas into my head. I enjoyed how the writer went between present time and the past. Giving a well rounded view about Isobel Key. During certain parts you can actually see and smell what is going on. The only thing I did not like was the fighting between Lou and Tammy. It made Tammy seem like a spoiled little twit. But towards the end she took her head out of her ass.

             Cannot wait for the second book to come out!
